Were You There

Were You There - Sam Cooke (山姆·库克)/The Soul Stirrers

Them was going to Jerusalem

He met two strangers along the way

They were talking all about the Crucifixion

They stopped and here's what he said he asked them

Were you there when they crucified the Lord

(Were you there )

He asked them were you there when the crucified the Lord

And one of them told him

No sometimes it causes me to tremble tremble tremble

He said I was there

I was there when they crucified the Lord

A fellow said I want you to tell me if you were there

Tell me did they really pierce Him in the side that morn

O Lord he said if you were there

I wonder did they pierce the Savior in the side

Sometimes it causes me to tremble

Every time I think about how they did the Lord

It makes me tremble 'cause I was there

And they really pierced him in the side that morning

A fellow said I want you to tell me if you were there

Kindly tell me

Did he hang there and never say one word

Saying you there I want you

Hang there and never say one word

Sometimes I have to tremble

Every time I think about how they done the Lord

It makes me tremble

'Cause I was there when they crucified the Lord
